This episode will highlight the relationships that Lesley Carroll has been cultivating for a lifetime in Northern Ireland and how as a natural leader, she has cultivated bringing resiliency practices to her beloved country. After learning about the Community Resiliency Model(CRM)®, she saw a way forward from the entanglement of past experiences, not just for herself but for the community of Northern Ireland. She believes passionately that the wellness skills of the Community Resiliency Model could help those caught in the cycle of traumatic responses continually triggered by unsettled politics and public debate. She had been privileged to visit other conflicted communities across the world and her vision includes a vision for sharing the CRM skills in other places by training up people from Northern Ireland who can testify to the effectiveness of the skills and share them from their own experience with those living in similar situations. Since then, Lesley has facilitated the Trauma Resource Institute to train trainers to deliver the Community Resiliency Model and has put steps in motion to form the Community Resiliency Network Ireland. Victim Support NI is one of the organizations influenced by the Community Resiliency Model. Jolena Flett is currently Head of Services for Victim Support NI, the leading charity supporting all victims of crime in Northern Ireland. Jolena is responsible for the integration of CRM into the organization at all levels for staff and volunteers. Current work is now expanding on the CRM work through the development of a modified module that can be used by other victim support organizations across Europe.
